UN accuses Tanzania over child trafficking

The Citizen Newspaper A United Nations report says Tanzania is still a source and transit point for children trafficked to South Africa, Europe and the Middle East to engage in forced labour and sexual exploitation.

The report also says children were being sold for ritual purposes in the country, a charge that the Government, however, denied.
